I met Ellen years ago when my daughter was in junior high. I went to her home to buy accessories. I got to know her and brought friends and relatives to meet her. She was always welcoming and fun. I’d run into her at Sunset Foods in Long Grove and she was quite a talker. Everyone knew her, she had a winning personality- she lit up a room. As it turns out my “Yogette” friend Linda turned out to be one of her closest friends. The world is small. I cannot tell you how shocked I was to hear of her passing. She added Joy to our community. She will be missed.
